Jackson and Marduk's curator insight, October 6, 2014 4:39 PM

Economic: China is selling air to tourists because the smog is so bad there.  This addresses China's air problem, which is caused by producing goods. The World Health Organization described this problem as an environmental crisis.

Colton and Kenneth's curator insight, October 14, 2014 12:47 PM

Even if the air in China is polluted, what's the point of having the bottled air? What's its purpose? It says it addresses the dangerous smog levels, but that is already well known information. China & Area/Geography

Emily and Kevria's curator insight, October 16, 2014 4:56 PM

Economic: Due to the bad air quality,  China is startimg to trade bottled air. Canned air is goimg to starting becoming more and more popular. The air quality is caused because china is a mass prduction company. This article fits into the economic category because they are trading bottled air for money.
